What it’s like to live in Iuka Ravine
Nestled between Ohio State University and the Olentangy River, Iuka Ravine features distinctive homes along a wooded gorge creating unexpected natural beauty. The uniquely designed street follows the natural ravine contours, creating charming housing options unlike typical campus rentals. While popular with faculty and graduate students seeking character over convenience, parking can be challenging and winter ice requires caution on the neighborhood's steeper sections.
